Technological slavery

Technology is inseparable from civilization. It has changed the world ceaselessly. Because of it, we will, for example, ship data to the other finish of the world in seconds; discuss to folks from different continents; travel to any place on this planet in one day; retailer 1000's of images on a drive the scale of your thumb; create digital realities, as well as do a bunch of different issues that no one would have imagined just a hundred years in the past.

But expertise has its unhealthy facet too. In the current world, it's controlled by organizations who do not need our best interests in thoughts. They won't hesitate to make use of technology's great energy towards us. Spying on - and analyzing - our communication; controlling the knowledge we obtain; emotional manipulation; modification of behavior - these are only a few issues expertise is being used for today. All that with more protection, accuracy, effectiveness and with much less human effort. If this "progress" isn't stopped, we'll find yourself in a prison that we would not discover in our worst nightmares.

I'll attempt to describe the way in which a very powerful applied sciences of at present contribute to the creation of a worldwide system of control. I can even mention a couple of technologies of the future, and take a look at to connect all the information together and predict the destiny of this world. Let's start with one of many innovations that affect folks probably the most - The Internet.

The Internet

Every connection, for example sending a message, or coming into a website, goes through your Internet Service Provider, earlier than it reaches the target. In principle this implies ISPs can freely spy on and modify everything you do on the web; for instance - decelerate or block the downloading of torrents; inject ads to your visited sites http://zmhenkel.blogspot.com/2013/03/isp-commercial-injection-cma.html (archive) (MozArchive), or even create an enormous censorship system, like the so-referred to as "Great Wall" of China.

The commonest usage of the Internet is searching websites, for which we use an internet browser similar to Mozilla Firefox, Internet Explorer or Google Chrome. These three "giants" just about exist to collect knowledge on their customers. Google a minimum of admits to it - alternatively, Mozilla pretends to care about your freedom and privacy, but really spies on you and controls you. It's been a few years since Mozilla decided they will decide what add-ons you possibly can and cannot install - apparently to "protect the users", but nothing stops them from, for example, disabling AdBlock. Mozilla has labored with advertisers for a long time - they've even proven them in your New Tab panel: https://weblog.mozilla.org/advancingcontent/2015/05/21/offering-a-precious-platform-for-advertisers-content material-publishers-and-users/ (archive) (MozArchive). The myth of Firefox "respecting the person" has died and is not going to resurrect. Just read a certain reply from their webpage: Our merchandise do not interrupt the searching expertise; they catch customers when they're most receptive to seeing new information. So, for them, you might be merely prey to be caught for the purpose of getting ads be shoved into your brain. Despite that, they still spew slogans about "respect and freedom". I could spend the entire article on mentioning all of the ways common web browsers exploit you. Opera, for example, actually spies in your entire net history with out your data. The three giants talked about earlier additionally spy on you, but in some other methods.

Almost every massive webpage works carefully with the police / authorities and can happily share data about you with them - for instance, the IP deal with of the computer you made a forum publish from. Exceptions, comparable to Lavabit (interesting story by the way in which - you possibly can read it on the internet) or The Pirate Bay, have their servers raided.

Lately, it grew to become fashionable to store your data "in the cloud", for instance Dropbox or Google Drive. This is basically useful to the elites - they can now see and analyze your recordsdata, which may give them information about your interests or plans (which could be used in opposition to you). One man from 4chan was storing bomb making instructions on Dropbox, only to seek out that, one day, they've been deleted. The Internet is full of cases like that, and they are not all about bombs. Thus, we are able to see that your data isn't secure on these cloud "providers" - it ceases being yours. Most definitely, in several years, wanting to keep your knowledge by yourself drive will likely be thought of "abnormal" - and cloud storage might be the usual - like it's today with money vs financial institution accounts, for instance. This will open the door to complete control of your stored information, automatically blocking supplies about - for instance - the aforementioned bombs. Another, perhaps more plausible choice, would be punishing the individuals who upload such recordsdata - like film producers did with people downloading certain torrents.

Google

How do most individuals discover data on the internet? Using Google, of course. But Google is something more than just a search engine - it is a company whose goal is gathering as a lot information as possible and creating a profile about you. Their spy scripts (for example, google analytics) exist pretty much on each site - you possibly can even not know what Google is, however nonetheless be spied on. That data is then used to, for example, show you focused commercials, but additionally completely different search outcomes. So a Christian searching for "abortion" will see one thing else than an atheist.

Google went further and invented a new algorithm for displaying search outcomes. The websites who are, in response to them, based on "info" will be greater up. Alternatively, those that contain untrue data (again, based on them) might be further down. One of many methods Google charges the reality value of websites is evaluating them with the articles on Wikipedia. And since we know the way Wikipedia treats conspiracy theories, we will assume they may pushed away by official versions of occasions. Soon, when we seek for one thing like "genetically modified organisms" we are going to solely get "prepared" information. Google's invention could become one among the most effective instruments of censorship and opinion control.

Google also controls other frequent companies. One in all the most well-liked is YouTube, which they've been "reforming" since they bought it. I used to be surprised when a few years in the past I couldn't log in to my YouTube account with out making a Gmail account. I did not need their e-mail (which spies on you) so I said goodbye to YouTube. I didn't use it a lot, but still.

Another YouTube reform is named Content ID. It's supposed to protect copyright. The creator of a film or song can share their creation with Google, which will then evaluate it with every different file on YouTube. If it considers one of those information close enough to the submission, it can both delete that file, take away sound from it, or add commercials.

- Nintendo was in a position to put ads on some films showcasing their games: http://www.destructoid.com/nintendo-is-claiming-ownership-of-let-s-play-movies-253793.phtml (archive) (MozArchive)- A person uploaded some birds singing. Content ID assumed it was some copyright protected song, and added advertisements to it, which earned the creator of the nonexistent tune money. https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20120227/00152917884/guy-gets-bogus-youtube-copyright-claim-birds-singing-background.shtml (archive) (MozArchive)- Some company even put commercials on another person's song, and earned cash from it: https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20150317/10513630347/umg-licenses-indie-artists-track-then-uses-content material-id-to-declare-possession-it.shtml (archive) (MozArchive)

Before Content ID was invented, someone who thought that a film violates copyright, had to ship YouTube a kind, which could possibly be accepted or not. Nowadays although, they've a much easier approach referred to as Content ID, which allows them to earn money if it finds some similarities. You can theoretically appeal a Content ID choice, however it's pointless because the attraction shall be determined by...the same company that uploaded the file. Many frustrated people are complaining in web feedback, saying that Content ID is horrible, that it made a mistake with their film, that they're stealing their cash, that they have lost their recordsdata or their account. There've been debates about copyright and AI normally. Some individuals have mentioned that movie or music creators ought to be glad to have their content shared on YouTube. But these discussions can exist only because Content ID happened. Without it, individuals could freely share their motion pictures without them being probably modified / deleted by automated evaluation.

An identical program could possibly be used to delete motion pictures about undesirable subjects. Even now YouTube is deleting "racist", "nationalist", "insulting" films - even when usually that's just an excuse; but they must do it by hand. In the event that they put collectively Content ID with the site sorting algorithm, they might create a system that deletes certain content material robotically. A more advanced form of that algorithm could even delete sure parts of motion pictures which have undesirable matters (for example, deleting a number of second long part with a racist slur). It will work similar to the profanity filters on forums. Nevertheless it would not be limited only to that - Google has shown, that they're very desirous about controlling your beliefs, after they've created the positioning sorting algorithm I spoke about earlier. A tool that would detect the place in your movie an undesirable subject is talked about, and exchange it with their modified model, would be very welcome of their arsenal.

You could write an entire e-book about Google; I do not wish to do it - however I must briefly point out some other things they've done. Recaptcha is the preferred way to defend forums from spambots. In case you needed to jot down something on a forum with recaptcha, you had to kind a certain phrase. You didn't all the time get a word, though - you may get one thing like a road handle, which would then get added to Google StreetView, which permits spying on people. For years, anyone who wrote on 4chan, was filling their database with street addresses, whereas not necessarily realizing about that. What really is StreetView? Google automobiles travel the world taking pictures of every thing and everybody. Then they put these images of their database, which might be searched by anybody. Google has entry to photos of the whole Earth, pretty much - and even to the historical past of locations people search for utilizing their maps. What may that data be used for? You possibly can learn on Wikipedia that a lot of countries had a problem with StreetView. They thought it intrudes on the citizen's privacy. But after "consultations" they've all agreed to permit it. Isn't this proof that we're dealing with a worldwide plan to spy on individuals?

They've modified ReCaptcha since I wrote the above. Now, you get a set of footage and you have to decide on those containing a certain merchandise, for example hamburgers. This is used to train Google's synthetic intelligence, which will even most likely be used against us sooner or later. I will end this part with a quote from Google We do not need you to kind at all. We all know the place you are. We all know where you've got been. We will kind of know what you're occupied with.

Social networks

One in all the preferred internet websites today are social networks, corresponding to Facebook or Twitter. People flock to them like flies, filling their databases with info resembling identify, surname, cellphone number, place of work, pursuits, and friend lists. They do not have an issue with sharing their political opinions. Facebook makes it really easy, for the reason that Like! button appears on most popular web sites, and clicking it sends information to Facebook in regards to the article you preferred. How might they use that data? For instance, for exhibiting targeted ads. A few years in the past, Facebook promised that it will never do this - but then modified their thoughts and it's now a reality. Some of these advertisements may be insulting - for example, an individual suffering from most cancers, after searching for information about it on the internet, was shown adverts about...burial services! http://www.naturalnews.com/049386_Facebook_privateness_surveillance.html (archive) (MozArchive)

Comments written on these social networks are much more dangerous. They're attached to your actual title, and whoever finds your account can read them. What could be the results of that? You might lose your job or be arrested. Some examples:

- An individual was arrested for posting lyrics of a heavy metallic tune on Twitter. The federal government thought he was literally threatening to kill individuals and he was arrested. This incident was described in detail right here: https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20140906/13490628443/heavy-metal-lyrics-posted-to-fb-end result-arrest-terrorist-threats.shtml (archive) (MozArchive)- A waitress misplaced their job forty eight hours after complaining on Facebook that she's earning too little in ideas. http://www.inc.com/news/articles/2010/05/waitress-fired-for-fb-submit.html (archive) (MozArchive)

We may very well be specializing in singular situations - was someone punished appropriately or not? You might even blame the sufferer. However the logical thing to do is to take a look at the whole situation from afar. If these feedback have been made in particular person, and never on the web, nobody might have gotten in bother. The potential of punishing someone is the consequence of the technology that attaches the things you put up to your title. After years of using social networks, you could find something on anybody, even when he didn't think that the message he's writing would have given him issues later.

300 employers were requested whether or not they've checked the profiles of their would-be recruits, and 91% agreed. 69% dismissed an worker due to one thing he had in his profile. A few of the offending things had been: unfavorable opinions about earlier employers, photos of using drugs or drinking alcohol, or "inappropriate" photos.

There are additionally extra direct ways that the social networks can have an effect on you. In 2014 Facebook did a psychological experiment that was supposed to show that you may management human minds without knowing them personally, and without their data. 689003 individuals (who weren't aware of being lab rats) had been divided into two teams - one among them was proven solely content producing constructive emotions, the opposite - solely unfavourable. The extra positive content material somebody noticed, the extra positively he himself responded. The variations had been small, but perhaps they might be elevated with more drastic measures. For example, showing someone articles about murders or kidnappings. You can also target the content someone was going to be proven individually - based mostly upon the things he is written in his profile, or his searching historical past (which Facebook collects through the Like! buttons). If someone reads a whole lot of anti-government web sites, they can be shown articles about the government doing one thing unhealthy. Or an anti-GMO person would be proven details about GMOs being legalized someplace. It is plausible that this experiment opened the door to just this sort of factor. You can read the whole experiment right here: http://www.pnas.org/content/111/24/8788.full (archive) (MozArchive)

Facebook additionally makes use of an algorithm for detecting faces on images and robotically including a reputation to them. http://www.dailydot.com/technology/facebook-deepface-science/ (archive) (MozArchive). If your identify is on no less than one picture, each different photograph together with your face could possibly be detected as you.

Communication and encryption

Increasingly more human communication is completed electronically. This has the same downside as financial institution accounts - you pay for a fundamental human want. But that is not an important. A human speaking eye to eye is spontaneous. He knows only the particular person he is speaking to can hear him. Then he brings that perspective in the direction of speaking within the cellphone, which follows different rules - all knowledge about when, the place, and to whom you made the decision is saved within the provider's database. In most international locations the police has access to the data if they have the court docket order. But in Great Britain - the leader of digital spying - three of four most used providers send all their information to police in actual time: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2014/oct/10/computerized-police-entry-customers-cell-cellphone-records-like-cash-machine-ripa-three-ee-vodafone/ (archive) (MozArchive). The implications are monumental - the same group (the police) who can high-quality or punish you, now has entry to all of your cellphone calls. People have been locked up for SMS messages earlier than, but usually they needed to physically search their phones. This requirement disappears with the computerized system of sending messages to police.

The same is true of web communication. Most individuals use common instruments like Gmail or Skype. In one in all his leaked documents, Edward Snowden revealed that the NSA (National Security of America) has a program known as PRISM, with which these corporations cooperate. Since 2011, Skype provides access to your conversations to the NSA, together with video recording:

In fact, we could use much less in style software with an encryption capability, however would that protect us from spying?

David Cameron, the prime minister of Great Britain, got here up with an thought to ban encryption, arguing that There needs to be no means of communication, which we can not learn. Many people laughed, saying that the federal government would have to delete encryption software from folks's hard drives (and would that really be an issue for them? Malware exists, you already know). Others thought that they can not implement it, as a result of it might make banking and such insecure. But this looks more like a desperate way to dismiss the chance that, within the near future, all our conversations executed electronically will probably be spied on by the government.

In one other leak of NSA's documents, it was shown that they need to reduce the effectiveness of frequent encryption:

You needn't work with a software's creator to spy on our conversations, although. Even in open source software program (that anyone with enough information and dedication can examine), there nonetheless occur bugs that can weaken the encryption. For example, OpenSSL, the preferred library encrypting our communications with web sites, for 1.5 years had a bug permitting to download a small amount of information from the reminiscence of the server that it's used on, and that knowledge may embody passwords and encryption keys. NSA, after all, took benefit of that: https://www.bloomberg.com/information/articles/2014-04-11/nsa-mentioned-to-have-used-heartbleed-bug-exposing-customers (archive) (MozArchive) Another instance: Cryptocat screwed up the implementation of an encryption algorithm, which allowed anybody with sufficient functionality to decrypt communication made with it. And NSA has these capabilities - additionally they save all encrypted communications, so they can decrypt it later.

And they will most certainly succeed - there is a big likelihood that quantum computers will make all present ciphers irrelevant - https://hackaday.com/2015/09/29/quantum-computing-kills-encryption/ (archive) (MozArchive) - so non-public conversations shall be a thing of the past. Add to that voice recognition software, and we're finding ourselves in a world where all our conversations are searched for sure phrases (by a program much like Content ID I've talked about earlier).

Electronic banking

Cash payments are more and more typically being replaced by electronic ones. People like the comfort of being able to order something they need and pay for it with a few clicks. Having a checking account is one thing regular lately, even required. But behind the curtain conceal gigantic implications for human privateness and freedom.

Let's begin from the basics - what is electronic money? It's a quantity in a database on a server belonging to the bank you're using. Your capability to purchase anything is dependent on how massive that quantity is - and since humans need to, for example, eat - your life depends on it. How a lot digital cash you've is dependent on a number of things you cannot have an effect on - just using a bank account costs cash, so participating on this system means you automatically lose it.

A bank can eat much more of your cash - even without considering hacking assaults like this: https://thehackernews.com/2016/05/swift-banking-hack.html (archive) (MozArchive), where the hackers stole 12 million dollars. One guy from Cyprus obtained 720 000 Euros stolen by the european commission to repay Cyprus' debt. He had to hearth all his Cypriot staff and transfer to a different country. First, the sum was displayed as "blocked", then they deleted it altogether from his account. And, as he himself says, Thousands of other firms round Cyprus have the same situation. This reveals how much you'll be able to rely on a quantity in a database - all it takes is one thought in someone's thoughts, and it's gone. Read more about this subject here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?matter=160292 (archive) (MozArchive)

Another drawback with electronic funds is the truth that they are anti-privacy. All your transactions are stored within the financial institution's database. And the individuals controlling the bank can use it towards you - blocking unwanted transactions, resembling buying bitcoins http://www.coindesk.com/dutch-financial institution-rabobank-blocks-bitcoin/ (archive) (MozArchive) or donations to WikiLeaks: http://www.bankrate.com/finance/credit-playing cards/naughty-issues-credit score-card-wont-purchase-6.aspx (archive) (MozArchive). It's easy to imagine a world the place all your transactions are analyzed and automatically blocked in accordance with an inventory of banned items.

Paper cash doesn't have that problem. It won't disappear out of your pocket. There isn't a central point that shops information about your transactions. You can't "turn someone off" if he pays with paper cash - if somebody would not wish to promote you something, you go someplace else. Paper money is a instrument of the free particular person - that is why the elites are concentrating on it.

But you can nonetheless use paper cash, proper? Maybe not for long - they have been attempting to get people used to digital funds for a long time. Advertising financial institution accounts is commonplace. An increasing number of employers require having a checking account. The bounds on the amount you can spend directly with paper money are going down worldwide:

Will they go down to zero? In some locations that is already the case; for example, buses in London cannot be paid for in money since 3 years ago. The quantity of cashless places will increase, and people can be tied up in the electronic web of slavery.

2017 update: since writing the above, the scenario has bought a lot worse. In Sweden, payments are almost totally electronic: https://www.theguardian.com/enterprise/2016/jun/04/sweden-cashless-society-cards-phone-apps-leading-europe (archive) (MozArchive) - Swedish buses haven't taken money for years, it's unimaginable to purchase a ticket on the Stockholm metro with cash, retailers are legally entitled to refuse coins and notes, and road distributors - and even churches - increasingly favor card or cellphone funds.

In November eight of 2016, the prime minister of India has eradicated the 2 largest notes, which increased the quantity of debit card funds by 108%. Within the radio he mentioned Less-cash first, cashless society next. There are many different examples in several nations, akin to Denmark, the USA, and so forth. There's no doubt we're coping with a worldwide plan to destroy cash.

CCTV cameras

The strongest weapon of the technological management system are undoubtedly the CCTV cameras. While you'll be able to largely keep away from all the other things (at least for now), the cameras are doing their job just by present. They had been slowly being put into numerous places - from shops and schools to the streets, buses and flats; you'll be able to assume that wherever you move, your life is being saved, watched and analyzed by strangers. I've recognized a spot the place some drunks preferred to satisfy up they usually put a digital camera in there, which the drunks destroyed. But the subsequent day they replaced it again, so it is clearly crucial to them.

The existence of the spying system completely changes the relations between folks and the elites. You can't feel snug knowing that your every transfer is being spied on (by individuals who may also punish you in the event you do something they deem "incorrect"). Most individuals don't appear to care although - they buy in shops loaded with cameras and send their children to schools which have cameras. Some are even glad that they are being watched, repeating dumb slogans about "security", or other excuses that have nothing to do with reality. But that is just the beginning - the effectiveness of the spying system will improve a lot that you won't have the ability to dwell the way in which you at all times have. So what's the next part of this system?

Advanced cameras can do much more than just recording video and relying on the human's interpretation. They can spy on a human as he goes from one digicam's range to a different's, detect faces, mark people in accordance with gender or different criteria:

They also can detect your conduct and mark it as potentially "suspicious". That is already being used in places like India https://www.good.com/protecting/press-releases/Nanded-India-Deploys-Nice-Safe-City-Solution-to-Protect-Citizens-Visitors-and-Historical-Sites-129 (archive) (MozArchive), Glasgow https://www.nice.com/protecting/press-releases/Nice-Safe-City-Solutions-Deployed-in-Glasgow-to-Bolster-Security-Safety-and-Operations-Management-137 (archive) (MozArchive), and even within the Polish town Katowice http://katowice.naszemiasto.pl/artykul/katowicki-inteligentny-system-monitoringu-i-analizy-czyli,2656606,artgal,t,id,tm.html (archive) (MozArchive)

This system makes absolute slaves out of individuals. There is a central point by which the police can analyze all the data. One of the "suspicious behaviors" that have been being marketed by the CCTV firms was taking out a pistol out of your pocket. But anything at all could be thought-about "suspicious". Let's look at among the frequent issues that I've seen being banned: selling stuff on the streets, feeding birds, carrying a mask, walking the dog (!), driving without seat belts, and so forth. Sometimes individuals get fined for these items, however they need to be came upon first. The intelligent monitoring system removes this requirement, letting the psychopathic elites superb anybody for anything they think about.

Imagine you are strolling by means of an alley that's loaded with these cameras whereas consuming a sandwich. Then you definately throw away the bag wherein the sandwich was. A camera sees that and assigns you a wonderful of fifty dollars for littering. Your face has been detected and the trail you're taking is now being watched and sent to the police in actual time. A few minutes later the police comes; you're making an attempt to cover but it's impossible, since there are cameras all over the place, and they know your place. In the long run, you pay up, the same as anybody who has ever littered. This may look funny now, but the technology exists to make this scenario a reality, it's just a matter of implementing it. The advertisements for these cameras make it clear - being in the crowd will not protect you. Neither will hiding your face, altering clothes, transferring somewhere, and so forth. People will for certain try to discover a strategy to fool this system, and they might even succeed firstly - but the algorithms will get better, and will ultimately make it unattainable to idiot them.

Inventions of the longer term

There are other technologies, which have been just lately invented, that sooner or later will gas the control system. Just about each new invention has the potential to try this (or even is invented for this reason), however I'll strive to explain a very powerful ones.

Microchips

There is a massive marketing campaign all over the world to place chips in individuals's pets, allegedly to "be able to find them", however truly the purpose is to get folks used to the concept of chipping. And then they may chip the individuals. In some bars or workplaces they're already being used to, for instance, open doorways; after sufficient propaganda they are going to be injected in each child that's born. They will substitute ID cards, credit score cards, and other current documents. They will be required in an increasing number of places, and you will not be able to fulfill basic needs (resembling procuring) without them. Why do the elites want to chip the folks so bad? Because it should permit them to create a gigantic database containing the time and place of each particular person. This has already been tried in some American faculties, for example: http://www.alternet.org/civil-liberties/children-tagged-rfid-chips-creepy-new-technology-faculties-use-observe-everything-children-do (archive) (MozArchive). The youngsters wear ID cards on their necks, and people playing cards have the chips in them. Their position is being sent to the school computers in real time, as well as detecting occasions similar to coming into or leaving college, buying lunch, or entering the library. It's only a matter of time until all of us have them under our skins.

Holograms

Advertisements have been with us for a long time, even earlier than know-how. You can avoid them by putting in AdBlock or switching to another Tv channel. But you won't be in a position to cover from an commercial displayed, for instance, on grass or the sky. I believed that is far into the long run before I wrote this article, however really, this has already been tried: https://thefutureofthings.com/5069-nike-launched-a-holographic-3d-advertising-marketing campaign/ (archive) (MozArchive) This could also be used not only to advertise products, however persuade people of the fact of a certain version of events.

Self-driving automobiles

Already being examined in, for example, California https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2017-02-01/tesla-is-testing-self-driving-cars-on-california-roads (archive) (MozArchive). And when they are going to lastly be put into roads, we are going to keep hearing about how secure they are (this already happens, but will likely be way more widespread). When individuals finally get convinced of the security of these automobiles, regular cars will be banned since they are allegedly less safe than the pc-controlled ones. So we are going to have the ability to drive solely in accordance with the path the pc chooses, which is able to after all even be stored in the global database. Cars without a steering wheel (already exist) will also forestall fleeing from the police.

Culmination of the technological management system

The final aim of the technological control system is placing together all these tools to permit full control of humanity. To use the Internet, you should have to provide your real title (or possibly flash a microchip?) - so Anything we do there will probably be linked to our real person. All encrypted connections and conversations will likely be decrypted on the fly and analyzed. Freely downloading torrents and even making jokes like "die in a fireplace" will likely be a factor of the past. All the information you obtain can be controlled - much like what Facebook and Google already do, but globally.

Our physical place shall be tracked by cameras and microchip scanners which will likely be in locations resembling outlets, airports, flats, and so forth. So our movements can be analyzed in actual time - but not by people, like it's now, but by AI (or even robots, farther sooner or later). You won't have the ability to flee from this system - they will even spy on the homeless (there have been already applications to seek out and catalogue the homeless' place, allegedly to help them, but it surely really was concerning the spying). Maybe they'll soon put cameras of their favorite locations, if they don't seem to be already doing that. December 17 revision: heh, they're already doing that - https://techcrunch.com/2017/12/13/security-robots-are-being-used-to-ward-off-san-franciscos-homeless-inhabitants/ (archive) (MozArchive). Didn't assume it might get there so quick!

Paper cash will absolutely disappear. All our transactions can be related to our real identify, as the whole lot else. There can be a giant, worldwide database storing the physical place of every particular person, in addition to every part he has ever accomplished, mentioned, wrote, purchased...All his movements will, of course, be analyzed in real time by AI. I think the technology for all that already exists - so it is a social or logistical downside, not a technological one. How lengthy will it take the elites to put in all that, and get people used to slavery? I do not know. But one thing is for certain: the comfortable life that you are used to, will probably be only a happy reminiscence soon.

Update 2022: in some way I felt like updating this, since I think I failed to make my major level as effectively as I wanted to. So, imagine a video recreation character, like Mario. By interacting with the game, we will verify how high he can soar, how long does it take him to reach full running speed, what kinds of enemies he can stomp on and which he cannot, and many others. Since Mario is only a program working on our computer systems / consoles, we can be taught all that he can do at any moment. His bounce peak is a relentless, so we will theoretically calculate whether or not he can hit some block, or in how much time (in-game frames) a sure enemy will reach us. Greater than that - by realizing the particulars of the sport, we can decide what's one of the best plan of action 5 ranges down the road.

That is, in reality, how extraordinarily exact speedruns are created. For simple games like Super Mario Bros, they are already very optimized, nearly down to a single step. But the same rules apply to even advanced video games like JRPGs. Picking up a sure merchandise early on can permit you to do something 2 hours later. Learning a certain skill that's weak at first can permit you to kill the ultimate boss in a single hit. Running from a battle can set a RNG-dependent variable to a sure optimum value, and so on. To a regular player, these strategies might seem silly within the short term, but they finalize in the absolute best route in the end. It is not just about speedruns, however any kind of problem runs, and many others. would require deep data and long term analysis of the game mechanics to perform.

Now what if I instructed you that reality is the video recreation in question? Imagine - your location is already known by your smartphone, or automobile, or a web of CCTV, or a mix of those. Your deepest darkest wishes are recognized by your search engines like google, your network of buddies by the social media providers, and so forth. Just this alone permits large data, prediction and control talents (this has been described in the previous sections). But think about we go deeper with microchips, thought readers, smart cities and stuff like that. With rising know-how, we become more just like the video game character.

To achieve that level, we require three issues. First is the technology that enables us exact enough knowledge collection. Second is powerful computers that enable calculations quick sufficient to predict outputs based on inputs lengthy ahead in time (what chess engines already do, however in a way more complicated system). The third is the expertise that enables us to push switches - the way in which a keyboard or joystick does in a video recreation device. See, we're still bodily beings, dependent on issues like genes expressing themselves, neurons firing, hormones coming into a cell to cause sure modifications, and so forth. All of this could be theoretically managed by expertise. Even now, with the relatively simple switches that we've, we will already trigger depression in social media users by exhibiting them certain stories. We will get people to purchase issues thanks to AI-determined direct ads, etc. Imagine if we get right down to the level of the cell!

And the elites are surely working on such a technology as we communicate. I imply, what do you think the mRNA vaccines are? Now I guess some of this could be used positively, however it in some way by no means is in the present world, so it's a fool's dream. The principle point is, we will lose our humanity either approach, when the evaluation and management ability reaches Mario's degree. We must either determine to inhibit such a expertise, or quit our humanity, since e.g lying won't be doable with neuron access. Hey, perhaps you think that people will determine to hand over superior know-how. Forget about it, Ted Kaczynski has lengthy disproved such a notion - know-how develops just about by itself, with out regard to human hopes and dreams.

And this is why we'd like the bodily infrastructure soon. If the world is controlled by evil actors (as it is right now) and they have all this capability (which we do not), together with direct cell access, God assist us. The higher the technology, the larger the ability difference between us and the elites. Resistance will not be doable anymore when technology reaches such a stage (which I would guess takes no more than just a few a long time). Imagine them being able to point out a graph of your almost definitely movements according to the information they have already got, in actual time, and use it in opposition to you. How are you able to resist, when the computer systems can predict what you're going to do on Level 6 of the reality recreation - and push a change to deny or change it? You won't ever do anything other than what the elites (or the AI, whether it is given management and goes rogue) allow. And for the reason that technological development won't stop, we need to take over right now.
